Detailed instructions for use are in the User's Guide.
[. . . ] Tier 4 emission standards, the FB140's C6. 6 ACERT engine features an aftertreatment regeneration solution that requires no operator intervention. The regeneration process automatically starts once the filtering system reaches a certain level with no interruption to machine performance or the work process.
Biodiesel-Ready Fuel System
The C6. 6 ACERT engine is equipped with an electroniccontrolled high-pressure fuel system that includes an electric priming pump and three-layer fuel hoses to allow the use of biodiesel (meeting ASTM 6751 or EN 14214) up to B20 (biodiesel 20% mixture).
Cooling System
The cooling system features an air-to-air aftercooler and A/C condenser positioned for easy servicing; the viscous fan automatically adjusts to ambient temperatures to help reduce fuel consumption and noise.
Speed and Power Control
The FB140 features speed control to maintain a constant speed regardless of load to improve fuel economy. Three different power modes are offered: high power, standard power, and economy power. The operator can easily change between modes through the monitor or console switch to meet the needs for the job at hand all to help manage and conserve fuel.

Seats
The seat range includes air suspension, heated, and air cooled options. [. . . ] All benefits are captured in a new bucket line with a new bucket naming convention. Caterpillar offers standard bucket categories for excavators. Each category is based on intended bucket durability when used in recommended application and material. Buckets are available as pin-on or can be used with a quick coupler.

General Duty (GD)
GD buckets are for digging in low-impact, low-abrasion material such as dirt, loam, and mixed compositions of dirt and fine gravel.
Heavy Duty (HD)
The most popular bucket style, HD buckets are a good starting point when digging conditions are not well known like a wide range of impact and abrasion conditions including mixed dirt, clay, and rock.
Severe Duty (SD)
SD buckets are for higher abrasion conditions such as well shot granite and caliche. Red area on bucket image illustrates additional protection against wear as compared to a GD bucket.

Specialty Buckets
In addition to the standard four bucket categories, specialty bucket styles are available for the FB140, each with a different purpose: · · Ditch Cleaning buckets for cleaning ditches, slope grading, and other finish work. Center-Lock Pin Grabber Performance buckets for maximum digging performance while keeping the versatility and convenience of a coupler. Wide Tip buckets for low impact material where leaving a smoother floor and minimal spillage are necessary. 1) General Duty 2) Heavy Duty 3) Severe Duty

Cat® Grade Control Depth and Slope
This optional system combines traditional machine control and guidance with standard factory-installed and calibrated components, making the system ready to go to work the moment it leaves the factory. The system utilizes internal front linkage sensors well protected from the harsh working environment to give operators real-time bucket tip position information through the cab monitor (1), which minimizes the need and cost for traditional grade checking and improves job site safety. It also helps the operator complete jobs in fewer cycles, which means less fuel use. · Hearing protection may be needed when operating with an open operator station and cab (when not properly maintained or doors/windows open) for extended periods or in noisy environment.

*Indicates that the load is limited by hydraulic lifting capacity rather than tipping load. The above loads are in compliance with hydraulic excavator lift capacity standard ISO 10567:2007. They do not exceed 87% of hydraulic lifting capacity or 75% of tipping load. Weight of all lifting accessories must be deducted from the above lifting capacities. Lifting capacities are based on the machine standing on a firm, uniform supporting surface. The use of a work tool attachment point to handle/lift objects, could affect the machine lift performance. Always refer to the appropriate Operation and Maintenance Manual for specific product information.

*Indicates that the load is limited by hydraulic lifting capacity rather than tipping load. The above loads are in compliance with hydraulic excavator lift capacity standard ISO 10567:2007. They do not exceed 87% of hydraulic lifting capacity or 75% of tipping load. [. . . ] They do not exceed 87% of hydraulic lifting capacity or 75% of tipping load. Weight of all lifting accessories must be deducted from the above lifting capacities. Lifting capacities are based on the machine standing on a firm, uniform supporting surface. The use of a work tool attachment point to handle/lift objects, could affect the machine lift performance. [. . . ]
